Definitions
- the present invention relates to fabric softener compositions, and more particularly to a fabric softener composition that comprises a blend of a methyl diethanol amine (MDEA) ester quaternary (quat) and a triethanol amine (TEA) ester quaternary (quat), wherein the MDEA ester quat has a high content of monoester.
- MDEA methyl diethanol amine
- TEA triethanol amine
- the fabric softener composition of the present invention provides improved softening performance as compared with either of the individual components alone.
- the fabric softener composition of the present invention is capable of providing a high-solids formulation that forms stable dispersions that maintain long term stability.
- MDEA ester quats are generally used as softening agents in various fabric softener formulations.
- MDEA ester quats are typically made by reacting various fatty acids such as a tallow fatty acid with MDEA; MDEA, which is also known as 2,2'-methyliminodiethanol, has the basic structural formula (HOCH 2 CH 2 ) 2 NCH 3 .
- the MDEA ester quats are normally made so that the products contain low levels of monoester (on the order of about 4 to about 7 % solids) for the fabric softener market because MDEA ester quats having a high monoester content are reported to be hard to formulate and they give thick gelatinuous formulations at high solids over 12 %. Most formulations employed in the North American market are ultra products that are over 24 % solids and even as high as 28 % solids. Triethanol amine (TEA) ester quats are the generic ester quats that are used in Europe, but TEA ester quats are not used much in the North America market because TEA ester quats do not soften well under Northern American washing conditions. The reasons for this is because of residual anionics remaining in the rinse cycle due to the single rinse cycles employed in typical North American top loading washing machines. Prior art TEA ester quats can only be formulated to about 18 % solids due to their chemistry.
- TEA ester quats are lower in cost than MDEA ester quats and thus have a cost driver if TEA ester quats could be used in the production of fabric softener formulations in North American products.
- the ester quats disclosed in DE '038 are said to have a sufficiently low and storage stable viscosity which makes the ester quats highly suitable for use in cosmetics and brighteners.
- DE '0308 an esterification product of a partially hydrogenated C 16 . 18 tallow fatty acid and a MDEA/TEA mixture is described for a fabric softener.
- DE '038 discloses that the MDEA/TEA ratio on the order of 15 % MDEA and 85 % TEA makes a superior softener. Manufacturing quats in the manner disclosed in DE '038 does not allow for the controlled production of MDEA having a high monoester content.
- the present invention relates to a fabric softener composition in which a blend of MDEA having a high monoester content and TEA ester quats is employed.

It should be understood that the two terms are interchangeably used in the present application to describe a methyl diethanol amine ester quat having a mono alkyl ester quat level of about 10 % or greater.
- a formulated blend of a high mono alkyl MDEA ester quat, i.e., MDEA having a high monoester content, and a TEA ester quat provides improved softening performance that is better than that obtained with either of the individual components (standard low mono alkyl MDEA ester quats or standard TEA ester quats).
- the applicants have determined that even though the individual ester quat products can be formulated to 12 to 18 % solids, when the two ester quats are blended together, as in the present invention, the blend may have a solids content about 25 % or higher.
- the inventive blend of a high mono alkyl MDEA ester quat, i.e., MDEA having a high monoester content, and a TEA ester quat forms a stable dispersion that maintains long-term stability.
- the fabric softener composition of the present invention has a definite synergism that enables the use of less expensive raw materials to provide improved softening results.
- the fabric softener composition of the present invention may further contain other quats blended with the initial blend of high mono alkyl MDEA ester quat, i.e., MDEA having a high monoester content, and TEA ester quat that provides even further softening improvements as well as stable formulations.
- Normally formulations containing commercially available di tallow dimethyl ammonium chloride are known to thicken over time when they are formulated into a composition of high solids with TEA or MDEA ester quats.

- An optional additional softening agent of the present invention is a nonionic fabric softener material.
- nonionic fabric softener materials typically have an HLB of from about 2 to about 9, more typically from about 3 to about 7.
- HLB HLB
- the foregoing nonionic fabric softener materials tend to be readily dispersed either by themselves, or when combined with other materials such as a single-long-chain alkyl cationic surfactant, the materials as set forth hereinafter, use of hotter water, and/or with more agitation.
- the materials selected should be relatively crystalline, higher melting, (e.g., 50°C. or greater) and relatively water-insoluble.
- the level of optional nonionic softener in the solid composition is typically from about 10 % to about 40 %, and preferably from about 15 % to about 30 %.
- the level of optional nonionic softener in the liquid composition is typically from about 0.5 % to about 10 %, preferably from about 1 % to about 5 %.
- Preferred nonionic softeners are fatty acid partial esters of polyhydric alcohols, or anhydrides thereof, wherein the alcohol, or anhydride, contains from 2 to about 18, preferably from 2 to about 8, carbon atoms, and each fatty acid moiety contains from about 12 to about 30, preferably from about 16 to about 20 carbon atoms.
- such softeners contain from about one to about 3, preferably about 2 fatty acid groups per molecule.
- the polyhydric alcohol portion of the ester can be ethylene glycol, glycerol, poly (e.g., di-, tri-, terra, penta-, and/or hexa-) glycerol, xylitol, sucrose, erythritol, pentaerythritol, sorbitol or sorbitan. Sorbitan esters and polyglycerol monostearate are particularly preferred.
- the fatty acid portion of the ester is normally derived from fatty acids having from about 12 to about 30, preferably from about 16 to about 20 carbon atoms, typical examples of said fatty acids being lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid and behenic acid.
- sorbitan esters that may be employed in the softening composition of the present invention include: sorbitan monolaurate, sorbitan monomyristate, sorbitan monopalmitate, sorbitan monobehenate, sorbitan monooleate, sorbitan dilaurate, sorbitan dimyristate, sorbitan dipalmitate, sorbitan distearate, sorbitan dibehenate, sorbitan dioleate, and mixtures thereof, and mixed tallowalkyl sorbitan mono- and di-esters.
- Such mixtures are readily prepared by reacting the foregoing hydroxy-substituted sorbitans, particularly the 1,4 and 1 ,5-sorbitans, with the corresponding acid or acid chloride in a simple esterification reaction. It is to be recognized, of course, that commercial materials prepared in this manner will comprise mixtures usually containing minor proportions of uncyclized sorbitol, fatty acids, polymers, isosorbide structures, and the like.
- This example shows that the use of high mono alkyl in the MDEA ester quat, i.e., MDEA ester quat with a high content of monoester, enables the TEA ester quat to be formulated to higher solids that has high softening properties.
- MDEA ester quat low monoester or low mono alkyl
- standard TEA ester quat results in a blended product that performs less effectively than pure MDEA ester quat and better than standard TEA ester quat.
- This data shows what one would expect with performance being more of an additive effect of the two softeners being blended.
- the data for the compositions of the present invention illustrate a true synergism that is not additive.
- the softening effectiveness of a formulation in this example was determined by judging the softness of cotton hand towels washed in an identical manner and rinsed with a known amount of softener formulation present. A panel was used to rank the towels by softness (1 for worst, 2 for second worst, etc. up to the number of formulations being ranked) with no ties being allowed. The total of each formulation's ranks is computed and statistical analysis (Freidman Simple Rank Test) was used to determine if a statistical difference at 95 % confidence level existed between the formulations.
- the results of the simple ranking test are provided in a shorthand form.
- the softness is listed in the order of their total rank number and preceded by a letter or letters. If two softeners share a common letter they are statistically equal. Formulations that do not share a letter were judged to be statistically different and the formulation listed first was superior in softening. The number following the @ represents the dosage of the softener actives/ dry weight of fabric laundry being treated and this result multiplies by 100%. Typical, North American Washing conditions were employed in this example. Samples of MDEA ester quat and TEA ester quat (prior art) made from 20 IN raw materials were compared to the normal versions and the following was observed:
- High mono MDEA ester quat was statistically superior to Commercial Brand MDEA ester quat.
- Low mole ratio fatty acid to TEA was preferred and such blends were equivalent to Commercial Brand MDEA ester quat.
- the MDEA ester quat with high mono used in the above experiments had an IN of 20.
- a new sample of high mono MDEA ester quat having an IV of 50 was used in the following experiments.
- Blends with TEA ester quat were tested against Commercial Brand MDEA ester quat and the following was observed:
- TEA ester quat blends are better, but not statistically better than Commercial Brand MDEA ester quat.
- a 50:50 blend of high mono MDEA ester quat and TEA ester quat with a 1.6 FA/TEA ratio was compared to Commercial Brand ester quat, a 50:50 blend of regular TEA ester quat with high mono MDEA ester quat, and a 3:1 blend of high mono MDEA and ADOGEN® 470 (a di tallow dimethyl ammonium chloride supplied by Goldschmidt Chemical Corporation) and the following was observed:
- This example shows the importance of providing a blend of MDEA ester and TEA ester that is made from the individual prepared quats. It is important that the MDEA ester quat be made in such a way as to maximize production of the mono alkyl, i.e., monoester, quat.
- German Patent No. 196 42 038 CI teaches that a blend of MDEA and TEA quats can be made from blending the polyamines before esterification and quaternization. Manufacturing quats in this manner does not allow the controlled production of high mono MDEA, which is key to the blends of the present invention.
- a quat made from the disclosure of the German patent containing 15 % MDEA and 85 % TEA was made and was compared to a composition with same ratio of MDEA (high mono alkyl) to TEA made by blending the individual quats and a quat using a higher ratio of MDEA (high mono alkyl) to TEA.
- National brand "B" was used as a control. The softness of each composition was determined and the results of this testing is as follows:
- the softener blend typically of the present application was statistically superior to the blend taught in German patent.
- German Patent No. 19642 038 CI also teaches that the quat made by blending the polyamines before esterification and quaternization was superior in forming high solids "ultra" softener formulations.
- One of the requirements for a successful "ultra" formulation is a low and stable viscosity.
- Formulations containing 10, 15, 20 % active softener from the teachings of the German patent were compared to formulations containing the same TEA to MDEA ratios of the separate quats.
- a formulation containing 10 % active softener composition as disclosed in this application was included for comparison.
- Viscosity measurements (Brookfield DV 1 using spindle # 2) were made immediately after formulation (time 0) as well as 24 and 48 hours later. Calcium chloride was used at 0.8 % level in all formulations.
